 Among other everyday sources of environmental toxins are paint, perfume, furniture, and carpets. Most of the fragrances on the market today do not come from natural flower scents or any natural scents; they're mostly chemicals. Some people can't go into department stores because they get violent headaches. Formaldehyde is used in inexpensive press board furniture as part of the glue. Many people get sick carpet syndrome because insecticides have been sprayed on carpets.

 REPPED: Public and environmental health is being severely threatened through the institution of animal factory farming, which pollutes our water, air, soil and even our bodies with harmful chemicals and pollutants. Corporations now have taken over the practice of family farming and have developed cost-saving mass-production strategies that are not only dangerous to public health, but are also cruel to the animals being processed. |

 Little by little we are destroying nature here on Planet Earth, but this is not just an environmental issue: it's an issue of cruelty. It is cruel to destroy an ecosystem, because doing so simultaneously destroys the life that depends on that ecosystem.
Too often, those of us in western society think of plants as inanimate objects. However, if we could see them on time-lapse photography, we would recognize that they are living, breathing, moving creatures. On a slow scale of time, populations of trees actually migrate. |

 This small, simple light can help consumers greatly reduce their environmental footprint while helping prevent global warming," said EcoLEDs founder Mike Adams, an outspoken advocate of natural health and environmental protection. "They represent a new era in environmentally friendly lighting, and they make incandescent lights and fluorescent lights virtually obsolete."
Currently, about twenty percent of the electricity used in the United States is used to power lights. |

 Moreover, lifestyle factors and environmental stressors may reduce coenzyme Qio concentrations in tissue. One lifestyle stressor is chronic high-intensity exercise. Lower blood levels of coenzyme Qi0 have been observed in studies of athletes, most probably the consequence of an excess of free radicals caused by the increased metabolic demands of chronically exercising muscles.
Another environmental factor that may result in coenzyme Qi0 deficiency is the use of cholesterol-lowering drugs such as the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins). |

 Because the fastest growing source of harzardous consumer products are, in fact, pharmaceuticals, and if the FDA admits it needs to start enforcing environmental safety in food and drug products, it would have to face up to the fact that medications are now a primary source of global pollution of rivers and oceans. (Take a guess what all those HRT drugs are causing down stream...)
So what about the EPA? Why doesn't the EPA regulate pharmaceuticals as environmental pollutants? |

 Actor and environmental activist Ed Begley, Jr., has recently purchased one and sees it as the car of the future. "This electric vehicle is rising from the ashes of the failed electric car industry," said Ed Begley, Jr. "This is a cool vehicle. It is fast, green and attractive."
Phoenix Motors acknowledged their supporter, saying they were "so appreciative to Ed Begley for his tireless efforts in helping to create awareness, not only of this vehicle, but of the larger environmental issues that all of us face," said Dan Elliott, CEO of Phoenix Motorcars. |

 You see this in many areas, but most notably in medical and environmental science. Let's start with the environment, because the censorship of environmental science has been blatant and extreme.
Under the Bush Administration, government-employed scientists are routinely told they cannot report results indicating the progression of global warming. The United States is the last among industrialized nations to claim that carbon dioxide emissions produced by human civilization have no impact whatsoever on the world climate. This is an utterly ridiculous position, and yet one that U.S. |

 At the present time 2,4,-D "is under special review by the environmental Protection Agency in the United States because of concerns about chronic health and environmental effects."3 In addition to being a toxic threat to animals and humans, chemical fertilizers and pesticides on lawns weaken the grass and destroy the natural balance of microbes and beneficial insect predators, thus, in the end promoting weed and insect proliferation.
As an alternative, try an organic fertilizer, which slowly feeds your lawn and does not kill earthworms. |

 In order for transmutation of personal and environmental illness to occur, we must be in harmony with nature.
As you read in the introduction, my true purpose in writing this book is to bring back ancient wisdom to help us in transmuting environmental pollution. As we became disconnected from spirit and our own divinity, we became more and more disconnected from other living beings and from nature. This disconnection has created most of the toxins and pollutions we now need to transmute in order to survive. |

 Pharmaceuticals are now an environmental pollutant
Some pharmaceuticals enter the water stream when consumers flush them down the toilet -- for years a common practice in discarding unneeded or expired medication. Earlier this year The White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the environmental Protection Agency (EPA) jointly released new guidelines for disposing prescription drugs. |

 If the genotype is always expressed no matter what the environmental or dietary factors are, then it would have little pheno-typic plasticity. On the other hand, if the expression of the genotype is greatly influenced by environmental or dietary factors, then it would have a very high degree of phenotypic plasticity. While virtually all of us now have genotypes or genetic codes that set us for obesity, the reality is that if we take appropriate dietary and lifestyle steps we can block the expression of the thrifty genotype that can lead to obesity and type 2 diabetes.

 These are the same scientific minds who have been advising President Bush on environmental policy over the last several years and who have convinced the President to announce a greenhouse gas emissions reduction plan that essentially offers no reductions.
Which is sort of like writing a recipe book that lists no ingredients. Or riffing on stage with rock band Linkin Park and then realizing you're only playing the air guitar. Bush is clearly playing air guitar with environmental policy, and he's jamming out tunes that nobody else can hear (because they only exist in his own head). |

 Other experiments involving environmental stressors such as heat, cold, lack of nutrients, ultraviolet light, and toxins all come to the same startling conclusion: at the right dose, these potentially lethal factors can actually promote survival.1 Just like desert plants, animals that survive environmental challenges are naturally selected to reproduce when times get better.

 The study, entitled "Lifespan Exposure to Low Doses of Aspartame Beginning During Prenatal Life Increases Cancer Effects in Rats" has been accepted for publication in the peer-reviewed journal environmental Health Perspectives (EHP), the most widely-read environmental science journal in the world.
This is the second study conducted by the Ramizzini Foundation documenting the cancer-causing effects of aspartame in animals. Most sane people, when faced with such evidence, would ask the obvious questions: Could aspartame also cause cancer in humans? |

 The store directed her to a Poison Control hotline, which advised her to call the Maine Department of environmental Protection (DEP).
The DEP sent a specialist to Bridges' home who found that the mercury from one broken CFL created mercury levels in the child's bedroom that were greater than six times the state's "safe" level for mercury contamination. The specialist advised Bridges to engage an environmental cleanup firm; the firm gave her an estimate of $2,000 to clean up the broken CFL.
The child's bedroom has been sealed off while Bridges attempts to raise the money for cleanup. |

 Her history was not terribly remarkable: raised in a loving family, she'd gone to law school with the dream of becoming an environmental advocate, but jobs in environmental law were hard to come by and she became a tax attorney instead. With the passage of time however, she found she hated her job. Her depression and fatigue grew and were now making it impossible for her to continue working.
Early on, I discovered this woman had an artistic temperament—she was a gifted painter and a pianist, though she hadn't applied these talents in years. |

 These environmental stimuli are called stressors. Very often, stressors are annoying or negative experiences—like having to take an exam, having your job performance evaluated by a superior, or arguing with a family member. But sometimes the environmental stimulus is positive—like getting married or going to an exciting movie. Obviously what produces stress varies from person to person; or, if you will, one person's stressor is another person's pleasure. Stress is important because if you are stressed out, all your symptoms will get worse. So stress, like depression, is a symptom multiplier. |
